555 Judges 1


And the children of Benjamin did not drive out the Jebusites that
inhabited Jerusalem ; but the Jebusites dwell with the children of
Benjamin in Jerusalem unto this day.

Joseph Conquers Beth-el

¶ And the house of Joseph, they also went up against Beth-el : and
the Lord was with them.
And the house of Joseph sent to descry Beth-el. (Now the name of
the city before was Luz.)
And the spies saw a man come forth out of the city, and they said
unto him, Show us, we pray thee, the entrance into the city, and we
will show thee mercy.
And when he showed them the entrance into the city, they smote
the city with the edge of the sword ; but they let go the man and all
his family.
And the man went into the land of the Hittites, and built a city, and
called the name thereof Luz : which is the name thereof unto this
day.

The Extent of the Conquests of Manasseh and Ephraim

¶ Neither did Manasseh drive out the inhabitants of Beth-shean and
her towns, nor Taanach and her towns, nor the inhabitants of Dor
and her towns, nor the inhabitants of Ibleam and her towns, nor
the inhabitants of Megiddo and her towns : but the Canaanites
would dwell in that land.
And it came to pass, when Israel was strong, that they put the
Canaanites to tribute, and did not utterly drive them out.
¶ Neither did Ephraim drive out the Canaanites that dwelt in
Gezer ; but the Canaanites dwelt in Gezer among them.
